Yet another hang on boot issue wqith 4.9. I havn't seen anything the same go through the list and I've searched the archives but not found anything appropriate. Dual processor P4 box, serverworks chipset, that has been rock solid under 4.8-P3, took it to 4.9-R and 4.9-STABLE (as of today) and it hangs on boot after the apm0 line. It's doing SMP and the motherboard has hyperthreading enabled. It won't break out to the kernel debugger so I can't get a kernel dump. Clues ? Known issue ? P.

Known issue ?I've dual processor P3 (Intel motherboard on ServerWorks) that was rock solid long time ago till early 4.8-STABLE. Once upgraded to 4.9-STABLE, it started to hang every night (not at the same day time, though). It won't break out to the kernel debugger too so I have no information for the PR. That occured 5 times. I've downgraded it to 4.8-STABLE of 8 August 2003 and it is stable again. Eugene Grosbein

Can you try compiling acpi into your kernel and retrying?> FreeBSD 4.9-STABLE #6: Mon Nov 17 18:02:33 EST 2003 > pir@falcon:/usr/src/sys/compile/SWORKS > Timecounter "i8254" frequency 1193182 Hz > CPU: Intel(R) XEON(TM) CPU 2.40GHz (2395.92-MHz 686-class CPU) > Origin = "GenuineIntel" Id = 0xf24 Stepping = 4 > Features=0x3febfbff<FPU,VME,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,APIC,SEP,MTRR,PGE,MCA,CMOV,PAT,PSE36,CLFLUSH,DTS,ACPI,MMX,FXSR,SSE,SSE2,SS,HTT,TM> > Hyperthreading: 2 logical CPUsXeons are Xeons and not P4s.
